I think BMW hit a home run with the 35i. Hitting the ball another 10-15 feet out-of-the-park adds nothing to the end result.
I'm going to guess the 35is will list around $63k - $65k US. Maybe as high as $69k if extended leather, premium pkg, etc is standard.
M Sport packages run around $4k depending on model.

That means an M Sport 3.0i will run high $50s with a similar look to a $75k loaded 3.5is.
